"The American Dreamer" on MUBI

MUBI is exclusively presenting the global online premiere of L.M. Kit Carson and Lawrence Schiller's cult documentary The American Dreamer, starring Dennis Hopper. Shot during the drug-and-orgy fueled making of The Last Movie, the legendary follow-up to Hopper's debut movie Easy Rider, Hopper stars as himself: a new kind of Hollywood—and American—icon.

The American Dreamer is playing on MUBI through March 12, 2016. For more about the film, read Mike Opal's exploration on the Notebook.
